I am getting the below error when attempting to query my database with my custom ContentProvider shown below.
I have confirmed the table exists with the correct name and it is still not working.
I was able to get it to work with a raw query, but i want to us the ContentProvider pattern for practice.
Thanks, let me know if you need more information.

From the error:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Invalid tables
I noticed that you don't call setTables():
SQLiteQueryBuilder queryBuilder = new SQLiteQueryBuilder();
queryBuilder.setTables(ProfessionalTable.TABLE_NAME);
before attempting to run your query.
